Q: What is a "50-move rule"?

A: As per the chess rules, if the last 50 consecutive moves have been made by each player without the movement of any pawn and without the capture of any piece, the game can be declared a draw by either of the opponents. The other player's approval is not required, and the game ends immediately and is recorded as a draw for both players.

To declare the draw in a game due to the 50-move rule, please use "Declare draw" link located directly below the game board.
